Caramel Apple Nachos Flavorful and Fun Party Treat
Ingredients
- 3 large apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), thinly sliced
- 1 cup granola (your choice)
- 0.5 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup crushed peanuts (or walnuts)
- 0.25 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0 optional Whipped cream (for topping)
- 0 optional Sprinkles (for garnish)
Instructions
- Wash the apples thoroughly and slice them into thin wedges, removing the core and seeds. Arrange the slices on a large platter or serving dish in a fan-like manner.
- Evenly sprinkle the granola over the apple slices, ensuring some pieces fall between the wedges for extra crunch.
- Warm the caramel sauce slightly in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds to make it easier to drizzle. Use a spoon or a squeeze bottle to generously drizzle caramel sauce over the apple slices and granola.
- Evenly distribute the mini chocolate chips and crushed peanuts over the apple nachos for added flavor and texture.
- Lightly dust the entire platter with cinnamon for a warm spice note that complements the caramel and apples.
- If desired, add dollops of whipped cream on the side or a few sprinkles over the nachos for a festive touch.
- Serve the caramel apple nachos right away to ensure the apples remain crisp.
💡 Chef's Notes
For an extra special touch, serve the nachos on a rustic wooden board, and include a small bowl of extra caramel sauce for dipping. Adding some fresh mint leaves can elevate the presentation further.
